1989 Volkswagen Other Additional Info:

No, it's not 4WD, but with the added Torque Biasing Differential for maximized true-2WD traction, you'll barely notice the difference. And with FOX off-road suspension, lift springs, and all-terrain tires, you'll go almost anywhere a Syncro can without the high cost and maintenance.
Mileage is 232,000 but only 35,000 on rebuilt engine and barely 1000 on transmission rebuilt last year.

This is a completely self-contained micro-RV with a full kitchen (sink, running water, propane stove) portable toilet, sun-heated pressurized outdoor shower, efficient modern Engel fridge/freezer, and everything fully powered by Gowesty solar panels that can rest in the roof basket or pop out legs and sit wherever the sun is.
The previous owner and I poured a total of $36,000 into upgrading and renovating this into the ULTIMATE ADVENTURE VAN with all the comforts and functionality you can squeeze into these remarkable vehicles.

A full-system pre-sale inspection from Louis Foreign Auto revealed the following issues:

Leaky coolant line - $200 repair
2 torn CV boots
Cracked exhaust downpipe
1 clogged windshield washer nozzle
